If you've got the owners manual they will be listed in there. If you don't have it, pull what you need and take it to the store, that will be the best way to get what you need.

Depends on what for. My whole truck is LED now

You will need a different flasher for LED blinkers.

Nothing to pulling the dash apart. Search on here. There is a big thread on LED dash lights.


Which dome light do you have? The newer style or older? If older go ahead and do the "taurus dome swap" then convert to LEDs. The newer style dome lights are 100x better.


Ash tray. Just a cheap little 194 LED



Dome light.



Glovebox is also 194

I have a rollpan and LED strip for tag lights.

Im not sure which done light i have. My friends in auo tech at the career center we go to and he said its a b$&@! To take out the dash but ill look it up.

I like the ash try looks. Thats what im going for on the inside, different colors.

So is replacing the bulb all i need for those lights i listed tbat i want to change?

Ill do a search on the taurus dome swap as well as the dash lights. But not sure about my dome light. Its a 95?

Nope nothing to pulling the dash to do the LEDs.
Here is the link

I think 96 was the new style dome lights.

All you need is the bulbs for what you listed.

Only thing you have to unhook is the fuel tank selector valve. You don't pull the whole dash. Just the black bezel around the gauges.

I was going to give you more rep points 86, but it won't let me. Anyway, good post with the bulb specs.

I also did the dome light swap. I got one out of a Super Duty, but its the same idea. Its 10 times better than the old chrome one with the yellow lense.
